    We used to do meet ups before Rona moved in a ruined everybody’s lives. Check in on the DFW thread and we’ll post up about the next one when it happens.

    How many miles do you have on your 2017 that you need to get the spark plugs changed?

    63k, the service manual recommends it at 60k also. truck kept cranking the other day but wouldn’t turn over and start, figured it was the plug since it was time for them per the manual. 4 or 5th time it finally started

    Yeah, mine have been done at much longer intervals than Toyota requested.

    How’s your battery?

    i was thinking battery too but they when cranking it didn’t seem like it wasn’t strong or lights being low as i’ve experienced in the past with dead or dying batteries. doesn’t this truck have a light to tell you when the battery is low anyway?

    either way i’ll get it checked at autozone

    No light to warn you about the battery. My original only lasted 25 months at maybe 35/40k miles before it died. I'm at 70k now and plan to do my plugs soon.

    If you start it and the headlights dim, that's kind of a warning light.

    That might be a good plan. I’ve noticed more pep around town.

    Anybody in the area know about an opening for a Mech./Manufacturing Engineer? I'm pretty motivated to switch jobs.

    Atkore International, in Weatherford. Lockheed turned me down, though I hadn't tried Bell.

    LOL. Did you change usernames? I thought it was something else. Anyway....

    You bought those a decent amount of time before we had kids and my oldest is almost 5, so.....probably more like 7 or 8ish years :D

    It's ok though. I have an AAL for my Dakar pack that I've been hanging onto for about 4 years so I'm slacking too!

    I sure hope so. Found out this morning that one of our coworkers was involved. He's pretty banged up, but got released from the hospital last night.
